The Bible

[fr0d0]

No, what is clearly understood through history is that the people who wrote the Bible were writing down creation myths that had been passed down through the generations. That said, the first books of the Bible are highly detailed, and they have a full genealogy from Adam in them. I hardly think the author would have included a genealogy if he didn't think it was completely accurate.

Incredibly thin evidence, and it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. Interpretation is key here, and factually, nothing backs up your assertion.

Frodo I must know where you are from that according to you the idea of eternal life is considered an outdated interpretation.My interpretation of the bible myths are not my own you would know this if you picked up a book on theology or modern christian thought every once in awhile.Most christians even so called learned christians take alot of what is in the bible myths as literal.There have been scientific excavation to try and confirm the existence of certain places mentioned in the Old and New Testament or to locate remnants of a people said to have occupied those places.

I've even seen so called scientific shows trying to prove that certain so called miraculous events in the O.T. actually happened such as the crossing of the Red Sea by the Hebrews to name one example.

You're incredibly insulting chatpilot for someone so seemingly ignorant of the subject. Perhaps you sense that you lose the discussion? I'm a current Christian and I'm telling you how it is. Literalism is a minority view. Get over it. Yes you have very vocal minority extremists. Don't you always get these?

When I asked for irrefutable evidence I was not referring to the visions of John but rather the existence of Christ as an historical figure for one and also for so called prophecies of his coming that were not taken out of context.

There is no irrefutable evidence as I'm sure you're aware. "Historians agree" that Jesus the man existed, is the best you can get I'm afraid. Then we have the question about his deity, something there necessarily can be no evidence for, as is His nature.
